Allen it is not as bad as one farm that i rented that had not be plowed for who knows how long and had cattel freerangen on it , normaly i would have 5-600 lbs on the ft. pulling 4x16 I H 710 plows and haul them in 1st high stick ahead well since i did not know the ground and it was in the area of the start of the coal fields and knowing the rock population of this state i figured that i would drop to low 4 well since i could not find any sign of a dead farrow i figure that i would roll it out then i would know where the middel was pulled into the field up along the one fence row pointed the nose to the east droped the nose of the plow and hit the remote to drop the back and pull the throttel down and the fire went out killed her dead wooooo whats this all about droped down to 3rd low wound her up and started to come off the clutch and promtly pulled the fasthitch out from under the tractor sheard all four bolts , drop plow use tuggem chain to hold said broke pices up under tractor take tractor back to farm #1 for needed repairs drill out said broken bolts clean holes out replace broken bolts with grade 10 Bowmaloy torqure to spec. go back hook up to plow try 3rd low again have to pull stick back kill tractor , drop to 2nd low rev up drop clutch put ft of tractor almost stright in air unhook plow go back to farm #1 add 4 more 100 lbs weight to nose bolt on two 150's to side rails go back hook back up to plow and it was 2nd gear and most of the time with the stick back and th ft. anywhere from a foot off the ground to 4 ft. off the ground as this place had never been plowed with anything more then a 2 N ford and 2 X12 inch plows or a team of horses and a walking plow and i had got under the hard pan at times i would bring up slabs of hard pan that would lift the plow up when it hit the bottom of the main beam . there was 75 acres of that the first year. I would have been ahead of the game if i would have bought , rented stole , begged a two shank ripper and ripped it first. And if ya think i am kidding ya i will give ya my one friends phone # and you can ask him as he would not ride one round with me but he sat and watched waiten for me to flip the 706 over .
